About the GAA Museum

GAA Museum at Croke Park

The GAA Museum was established to commemorate, recognise and celebrate the GAA's enormous contribution to Irish sporting, cultural and social life since its foundation in 1884. Located underneath the Cusack Stand of Croke Park, GAA headquarters, the museum is open daily throughout the year.

The GAA Museum was first opened in September 1998 by former Taoiseach Bertie Ahern. The GAA Museum details the birth and growth of the GAA at home and abroad and its unique role in the national movement and cultural revival in Ireland. The vast collection of artifacts which include hurleys, jerseys, trophies, medals, programmes, publications and banners illustrate the development of Gaelic Games whilst preserving and presenting the unique heritage of the Gaelic Athletic Association.
